Lucky “$25,000 a Year for Life” 2nd Prize Winning Ticket for April 28 is Sold in Fairfield County

April 29, 2014 -- Did you have a ticket for last night’s “Lucky for Life” drawing? If so, you could be Connecticut’s newest $25,000 a year for life second prize winner!

The winning numbers on April 28 were 4-10-25-26-39 with the Lucky Ball number, 29. One ticket sold in Fairfield County contained the winning combination for the game’s second prize of $25,000 a year for life.

Across New England, 40,744 winning Lucky for Life tickets were purchased for that date, including 13,647 tickets in CT alone. Last night’s Lucky match brings the total number of lifetime wins in New England to 22, including 8 wins in Connecticut alone since September 2013!

Another Lucky for Life second prize win, which occurred in New Haven County on February 27, is still unclaimed. The winning numbers for that date were 8-11-17-24-43 with the Lucky Ball number, 30.

The minimum guaranteed amount a second prize winner could receive is $500,000 ($25,000 a year for 20 years), but winners who live longer than that will receive prize payments for the remainder of their natural life. The second prize “Cash Option” is worth $390,000.

Because the CT Lottery does not know who the winner is until the prize is claimed, players should check and sign their winning tickets immediately to establish ownership.
